Products are still going to increasingly capitalize on existing capabilities, like you say, but I wonder if the "AI everywhere" phenomenon might end up being a turn-off for a significant number of customers.
I wouldn't bet on a full-on ai wonter soon, but it starting to seem more and more likely the more hype companies are trying to build on it.
Though why was that fact never mentioned in the adverts? Or did i just not notice?

I mean its nice but stuff that mostly seems out there on the web already. The auto turning photos into film is mostly something I have to spend time figuring how to turn off. We shall see. Sticking my phone into 'focus mode' without telling me was one of the worst things Apple has ever done to me. I missed important calls because I expected my phone to work as a phone as usual.
Technically, only the US is supported. If you are British and you try to enable it, you’ll be told that it’s not available in your language. To get it to work, you need to switch your device language from English (UK) to English (US).
Apple says “English (Australia, Canada, Ireland, New Zealand, South Africa, UK) language support available this December.”
Since access is controlled by your language setting and not your location, I don’t think this is a regulatory thing. No idea why it takes Apple months to localise from American English to any other type of English.
I expect there will be, at some point, "trusted" or "verified" accounts that are able to flag a completion as wrong, and provide it with a correct completion, which will be collated and used (daily? hourly?) to fine-tune the weights. Active inference cluster would be switched as A/B/C etc.
I also happened to know a copywriter who said she was laid off cause of ChatGPT.
It still is going to be a disruptive technology, though it is not perfect by any means.
It seems clear to me that most value will come from little bits of LLM integrated into other applications. Code autocomplete is a good example of this, it’s valuable because it’s a key press away in the workflow we’re already in. Email editing clearly works best in an email client. Generating an image for a slide deck is most useful in the slide authoring application… and so on.
There’s plenty of product discovery to be done and value to be realised in this space.
